This is the Team Losi 8IGHT 2.0 1/8 4WD Buggy Kit. Returning to its roots, Team Losi Racing is now offering the 8ight 2.0 vehicles in kit form for die hard racing enthusiasts, or those who simply prefer to build their vehicle. These kits include the same components as the roller versions, with the exception of tires. They do however, include two complete sets of wheels!The 1/8-scale 8IGHT 2.0 4WD Buggy Kit features over thirty revisions and improvements to the revolutionary 8IGHT buggy chassis. The 8IGHT 2.0 Buggy proved to be the fastest buggy in qualifying by taking Top Qualifying honors at the 2008 IFMAR 1/8 Buggy World Championships.

The chassis on the 8IGHT 2.0 has been extended an additional 2mm to provide increased stability and speed. The chassis’ Tuned Flex Technology provides significant handling gains by responding precisely to changes in the terrain without sacrificing balance and grip. Steel chassis droop stops have also been added to ensure consistent down stop settings.

The 8IGHT 2.0 includes updated steering geometry which features a servo saver with increased consistency. Additional gains in steering precision were made by incorporating a pressed-steel bushing in the Ackerman brace, which reduces friction over the entire range of motion. The suspension on the 8IGHT 2.0 allows for customization with numerous shock mounting locations, two camber link positions on the front carrier and four on the rear.

A revised radio tray on the 8IGHT 2.0 optimizes the position of the servos, while increasing response time and reducing stress on the throttle servo. The Sure-Close fuel tank ensures positive closure and prevents air from entering the fuel system.

The rear gear box on the 8IGHT 2.0 has the capability to shim the rear ring gear from the pinion to ensure ultra free drivetrain. Also included on the 8IGHT 2.0 is a left-side keyed insert to improve durability.

COUNTERSTEER

Below is a diagram that shows the different rotations between the front and rear on a countersteer chassis

On the following picture you have 2 chassis, grey = normal blue = countersteer.

If you look at the front wheels on both chassis you will notice a difference in steering angle through the corner.With the blue one the wheels will remain at an angle whereas the grey chassis requires constant counter and normal steering.

CS adds more realism to RC Drift but also requires skill and a bit of getting used to.
